In this paper, we present a new approach towards high performance speech/music discrimination on realistic tasks related to the automatic transcription of broadcast news. In the approach presented here, the (local) Probability Density Function (PDF) estima ...
State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) techniques are typically based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) for the modeling of temporal sequences of feature vectors extracted from the speech signal. At the level of each HMM state, Gaussian mixture m ...

In current automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems, the energy is not used as part of the feature vector in spite of being a fundamental feature in the speech signal. The noise inherent in its estimation degrades the system performance. In this report w ...
Lab sessions given in relation to Herve Bourlard's Speech Recognition course at EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne), second semester 2001. The full session is available from the web as ftp://ftp.idiap.ch/pub/sacha/labs/Session2.tgz . ...
HMM2 is a particular hidden Markov model where state emission probabilities of the temporal (primary) HMM are modeled through (secondary) state-dependent frequency-based HMMs [12]. As shown in [13], a secondary HMM can also be used to extract robust ASR fe ...
This paper presents overview of an online audio indexing system, which creates a searchable index of speech content embedded in digitized audio files. This system is based on our recently proposed offline audio segmentation techniques. As the data arrives ...

This report investigates the HMM2 approach recently introduced in the framework of automatic speech recognition. HMM2 can be seen as a mixture of HMMs, where a conventional primary HMM (processing a time series of speech data) is supported on a lower level ...
